A/C Not Blowing Cold Air1,193 Views

As summer
is coming car ac is becoming a necessity rather than just
for comfort, but what if your car ac do not perform what
it was supposed to do which is to cool down your car.

People
sometimes ask question such as why my car AC is blowing
hot air? well the answer is when the car air conditioner
blowing hot air this only indicates that the air conditioning
either has electrical problem or has major leak on the system.
If the a/c system has electrical problem it suddenly stop
blowing cold air, instead the car air conditioning system
blows hot air. Usually an electrical problem is triggered
by a short circuit on the system either the wire or the
a/c switch that causes the circuit breaker to become busted.
In that case there is a sudden stoppage of cold air that
comes out the a/c vents.

Likewise
when there is a major leak of refrigerant on the system,
there is a sudden stop of blowing of cold air on you're
a/c vents causing car ac blowing hot air. Refrigerant is
the one responsible in carrying the heat from your car compartment
into the outside so that the compartment will becomes cooler.
For some reasons if the air conditioning hoses or seals
are ruptured or damage, the refrigerant will rapidly escape
the system thus resulting to sudden reduction of cold air
that comes out the a/c vents.

There
are other possibilities that causes this kind of problem,
however this possibilities is not commonly encountered,
which is a compressor related problem. Usually the compressor
belt is slipping or damaged. Also it might be possible that
the compressor clutch is not engaging. As I have said about
the cause of a/c problem, these are possibilities that are
not commonly encountered but can also be considered.

If you
encountered this kind of problem, the first thing to look
at is the very obvious, check the engine compartment and
look for any ruptured or damage compressor belt. Next is
to look at the circuit breaker or a busted fuse, reset the
breaker or replace the fuse, bring the vehicle to a reputable
auto repair shop and have a mechanic to inspect the electrical
system of your vehicle.
